Personal Cancer Genome Initiative

To improve the lives of individuals with cancer, we have embarked on a research initiative to use cutting edge genetics and technology to interrogate the fundamental genetic" digital" code responsible for cancer development and overall clinical behavior. Our research program is focused on:

Development of novel approaches for analyzing cancer genomes

Discovery and validation of personalized genetic cancer signatures of cancer portending prognosis and therapeutic prediction for individuals with this disease
